Book Reviews of Hiroshima Notes
Book Review: A.B.C.D. Encirclement
Summary: 1 Stars
Sure to please american expectations as to what the contemporary Japanese are like. But its just propaganda written to order for a foreign market and its diseased media. A vulgar soapbox sermon. Elitist and condescending. In fact the commemoration of the BOMBING of Pearl Harbor was a very festive occasion. Deal with it.
Summary of Hiroshima Notes
Nobel prize-winner Kenzaburo Oe persistently confronts the hellish dimensions of contemporary life with keen and balanced grasp of personal concerns and social realities. This is his moving statement on the meaning of the Hiroshima bombing. Its universal message, developed by Oe over a number of essays, concerns the moral and ethical implications of nuclear war.General Books
